Emirates Elevates Luxury with New First Class Cabin

Emirates elevates its first First Class cabin with an array of new enhancements, from keepsake menus to gloved service, luxurious lounge-inspired check-in areas in Dubai, to the memorable ritual of unlimited caviar onboard.

Finessing the finer details of hospitality and service, the latest enhancements onboard Emirates’ First Class include a newly designed keepsake menu which tells an explorative story of Emirates’ wine selection and culinary inspirations. Customers can discover the heritage of rare bottles handpicked from renowned châteaux, with full tasting profiles and suggested pairings for an elevated dining experience.

You can savour the unlimited caviar in elegant new Emirates engraved bowls, designed by Robert Welch to complement Emirates’ existing range. Emirates First Class cheeseboard has also been enhanced, presented on a rustic slate, with accompanying bowls and a wooden honey dipper, in addition to its array of artisan cheeses and chutneys. Emirates First Class cabin crew provide a glove service for exceptional hospitality onboard.

Enhancing the on-ground experience for First Class customers, the First Class Check In area in Terminal 3, Dubai International (DXB) is also being refurbished to provide an exclusive atmosphere, featuring dedicated, personalised check-in services and a relaxing lounge design set to open in the coming weeks. Across the world, the journey for Emirates First Class customers is curated from start to finish, with complimentary access to 43 world class, luxury lounges across the globe, and complimentary chauffeur drive for seamless door-to-door transfers across most destinations.

In addition to regular enhancements in service and hospitality, there is an abundance of personal space and privacy.

Described as a ‘hotel room in the sky,’ the First Class cabin offers spacious, private suites above the clouds with innovative technologies including electronically controlled privacy doors on some aircraft, with personal temperature controls and adjustable mood lighting on others.

Emirates First Class customers get a generous 50kg luggage allowance, and for hand luggage items in the cabin, there is ample storage including a full-length wardrobe, overhead stowage, baggage storage and extra space for bags or shoes.

You can dine on your own schedule, as the menu is available on demand. Orders can be placed at any time during the flight on long-haul routes, including à la carte multi-course meals with locally sourced, seasonal ingredients.
